Semi key date from deep in the enchanted forest

[prolab69]

It was still early in the day. I had fresh batteries and a treasure itch that needed to be scratched. So after a 15 mile drive i found a nice trail to hike, the upstate NY colors are just starting to peek. Ever so slowly i hunted the trail until i reached the old Mill about a mile to the end. The trail held a few goodies, some clad, a 1919 strap buckle, a watch-key fob, and a 36 merc i scratched the hell out of chipping it out of the rocks, the best find was my 1868 Indian head. also found a cut large cent, no date) 1940 & 1910 wheaties and a rather large toasted copper, seems larger then a regular large cent as you can see from my comparison pic. the little box i thought was interesting, even though it only had a 1974 quarter in it. hope everyone enjoys the pics,

Very cool finds. I had to go back and read your post again because I thought the little compact held the old copper in it. That is something I imagine every time I find a compact.

it didnt jingle, it was full of dirt, but when i held it up to the sun and saw a round rim i was kinda hoping for silver, but the case being plastic
and modern i wasnt surprised when it was just a clad quarter. i felt a little sad for the kid who lost it tho.
